Noel merely said calmly, "We'll talk more about that later, Miss Lanes."
Noel went back and reported to Tremaine about his meeting with Qiana.
"She's Montez's mother," Tremaine spoke.
Noel couldn't tell if it was a question or a statement.
Noel tried his best to remain neutral as much as possible. "Mr. Tremaine, as things stand so far, Qiana seems to be Montez's mother. However, we should wait for the paternity test results to be sure."
Tremaine pondered for a few seconds.
"When the results come out, give her a sum of money and let her go. Then, this matter is over," Tremaine said in a cold tone.
"Yes, Mr. Tremaine." Although Noel said so, he was still confused.
He had been by Tremaine's side for many years, and he could figure out what Tremaine thought or what he planned to do.
But this time, Noel really couldn't figure it out.
If Tremaine didn't want to meet Montez's birth mother, then what was the point of finding her and asking for a paternity test?
After all, for so many years, Tremaine had never thought about looking for Montez's mother.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Montez was also about to go to kindergarten.
This morning, Montez asked Noel to bring him to purchase some school supplies.
Tremaine's eyes moved slightly as he heard that.
"I'll take you there," Tremaine suddenly said in a low voice.
Both Montez and Noel casted a surprised gaze.
Tremaine was not someone who would do such a trivial thing...
Montez's black eyes widened. "Daddy, are you sure? Are you going to take me to buy school materials? Bring me to a shopping mall? That's a very boring thing."
"Yes," Tremaine said faintly.
Montez jumped off the table.
He was having breakfast with Tremaine just now.
He walked to Tremaine's side. He lifted his small head and looked at Tremaine. "Daddy, I think I misheard you. You never went out with me to buy things. You're busy all the time."
Tremaine lowered his gaze and said, "I'll accompany you today."
"When was Daddy ever this nice?" Montez's voice was one that was doubtful but excited.
When was he ever this nice...
Tremaine pursed his thin lips.
He didn't know why, but he recalled Yesseca's words.
After breakfast, Tremaine left the house with Montez.
Montez was in cloud nine even before they left. He even told Noel, "Noel, did you see? My dad's going shopping with me today!"
Montez's childlike voice was full of pride.
Seeing Montez's joyful expression, Tremaine's lips curled up a little.
Yesseca was right.
Children at this age only need a little more care and love to be happy.
Tremaine had never been to a shopping mall, so naturally, Montez was leading the way.
Montez chose the shopping mall where he bought gifts for Yesseca.
Although he got injured there.
But at the same time, he bought a birthday present that Yesseca liked very much in that shopping mall.
Montez liked the mall though he had a bad fall. He went to the same mall to buy some of his school supplies.
Tremaine liked things to be done fast.
However, Montez liked to walk around.
